- Abstract
Introduction: Child development is a complex process that is influenced by several factors, among which we highlight the practice of breastfeeding. This is because breastfeeding beyond the biological effects has effects on the social dimension and the psychic apparatus of the actors directly involved. Objective: To analyze the influence of exclusive breastfeeding and associated factors on the DNPM children up to 36 months. Methods: Cross-sectional study of community based individuated data of 99 children up to 36 months old. It evaluated socio demographic, obstetric, neonatal variables and ND through the Development Monitoring Instrument. The variables were analyzed using descriptive statistics and regression testing. Data were considered significant when p <0.05. Results: Regarding the ND, 70.71% of children had all landmarks engines for their age. 98.99% of mothers breastfed, those 37.38% had exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) for six months. Factors that positively influenced the ND were vaginal delivery when compared to children with other types of delivery, and EBF for 6 months when compared to children who did so less than six months. Conclusion: The practice of exclusive breastfeeding for less than six months are associated with a more ratio of psychomotor development of children zero to 36 months. Other factors associated with delay in development are the instrumented vaginal delivery with forceps or Cesarean delivery
